South Carroll Veterinary Hospital

"Rosie, our cockalier, along with her brother, Opie went here for several years. Opie had bad hips starting at about age 6. He could barely get around our house- especially the day after going on a walk. Then, this vet gave us a magic cure, rimadyl - and things were great, but there was a catch - $800/yr in blood tests. We decrided to try another vet... YAY all the rimadyl Opie wants, no blood test required. Opie is super happy and healthy to this day (seven years later). Rosie had a heart murmur from birth. We knew this wasn't optimal... but we loved the pup. Several years later, abs very recently, she developed a dry chest cough. Karen told my wife it was probably her heart and she could give her medicine, but it would include $1400 of blood tests first. And then she told her "but if it gets worse... maybe I can just prescribe it anyway". Who's got $1400 laying around nowadays? So, Rosie died a week later. I'm sure Karen did everything by-the-book, but like our other vet said.... she knew what was needed... just..... So, Rosie would have passed in the near future regardless.... but it would have been nice to have an extra week, even had we had the $1400. I had previously left a very terse review to which they truthfully replied they had no idea who I was.... but they do/did know Rosie & Opie. Not going to turn this into an advert for other vets, but two in Westminster, and one in Mt. Airy aren't charging a fraction as much for bloodwork. But, very happily, we have two very cute brand new cavalier pups in the house!"

"I highly recommend Dr. Karen. Her love of animals and kind heart is evident from the moment you meet her. Her staff is welcoming and knowledgeable. All phone calls and concerns have been addressed promptly. Don’t hesitate to let her care for your pets."

"The care team at South Carroll Vet is AWESOME! My dog injured her knee and they’ve taken such great care of her. They call to check up on your pets after their visit, always on time with appointments, and so caring and compassionate. I couldn’t say enough positive things about this vet"

"I was introduced to Dr. Karen when my new puppy had a seizure. I had the pup in my home less than 12 hours. I had no history or reference for this practice and they didn't know me from Adam. But they scheduled an appointment to see me at closing time since they were booked full that day. They saw my pup, did a full examination and Dr. Karen spent over an hour with my pup making sure he had no lasting effects from the seizure. My previous vet of 40+ years is retiring. Dr. Karen is my new vet for life ! All four vet techs that were there that day were absolutely amazing with my pup, super helpful and informative."

"Dr. Karen is the most caring Vet. We have trusted her with our pets since she began. Her knowledge and care is unsurpassed. She and her staff are amazing and I wouldn't trust anyone else to care my fur babies . South Carroll Veterinarian Hospital is the best!"
